Youri Tielemans has Arsenal trial as Pep Guardiola gives Kieran Tierney Man City verdict

Your Arsenal morning transfer round-up on Sunday, August 14.

Tielemans practice run

Arsenal fans got a first chance to look at Youri Tielemans as the midfielder continues to be the centre of transfer speculation this summer.

The Leicester midfielder started the Foxes' 4-2 loss at the Emirates and didn't give his best display in front of what Gunners fans might hope will be his future spectators.

Although Brendan Rodgers remained decisive that the Belgian was ready to play the game, his side were outclassed, and Tielemans only lasted 64 minutes.

Tierney verdict

Mikel Arteta was not being drawn into talking about Kieran Tierney as the fullback has reportedly become a target for the Spaniard's former employees, Manchester City.

It is reported that Pep Guardiola would like to sign the Scottish defender as cover for Oleksandr Zinchenko after he made the reverse move to the Emirates this summer. However, Pep Guardiola said he no longer wants to sign a new left-back following the acquisition of Gomez.

Tonali ruled out

Although the chances seemed slim, Arsenal's rumoured interest in AC Milan midfielder Sandro Tonali would be better used elsewhere.

According to transfer expert Dean Jones, Tonali would only have left Italy this summer had Milan kept hold of Francke Kessie, and he went to Barcelona.

Jones said, "Now Frank Kessie has gone from AC Milan, and Tonali looks like he'll have an even more important role in the coming season. So I'll be very, very surprised if Arsenal manages to get Tonali out of Milan."
